What's for tea tonight? (#8)

Dunno. Was meant to be just me tonight but my daughter's off school with a dodgy belly so whatever it is will have to be something fairly safe....plus I'm fed up and can't be arsed with cooking anything which involves any effort....so maybe beans on toast :hmm:
 
Mmmm - tonight we dine on fried halloumi (god I can't believe it took me so long to discover this stuff - it's like crack!), potato salad, green salad, and tomato salad. And then Aero.

But first - WIIIINE!! Fella's gigging in Derbyshire tomorrow so we're having our Friday night tonight :D:cool:
 
oooh wine...that sounds perfect..but why do I want it tonight and not Mon/Tue/Wed when I didn't need to get up for work..:mad:...

Tonight we are having as vegetable frittata thing from the Asda freezer selection plus roasted veg and salad.
 
I haven't made a fish pie for ages, at least a couple of years :eek: no shellfish for me any more though :(

Tonight is freezer foraged meatballs with spaghetti.

It was made of win, although made with a couple of things I wanted to use up :D
Very green celery finely chopped (including leaves but no manky bits) to cover the bottom of a lightly greased pyrex dish; a generous sprinkling of herbes de provence; a drained small tin of red salmon (boneless & skinless) roughly spread over the other layers; a generous grind of pepper; a couple of raw spuds per person sliced thinly and roughly spread over the fish; mushroom soup for one person carefully poured over the lot (it trickles through the layers). Leave in a hot oven until the potatoes are tender (about an hour, could be less if you precooked the potatoes and maybe the celery too).
 
Last night we had a salad of beetroot, chorizo and feta with some orzo and mint.

Tonight was an oven baked risotto with sundried tomatoes and panchetta and Parmesan arrived with green beans and petit pois.

On Tuesday we had ikea meatballs from the Freezer with mashed spuds, broccoli and gravy & lingonberry jam. I'm not sure if I already posted that though as I don't seem to be subscribed to this thread anymore???

Cooor indeed!
 
I am so fucking tired and wiped out but also really hungry.
It's not fair to make Badgers cook when he gets in from work is it.

It is if you're so wiped out already, kitty. I'm sure Badgers would understand. Save your energy for eating - could you have something like a sandwich or a bowl of cereal while waiting, just to tide you over?

FWIW there are days when I've been doing an impression of the bluetailed fly for several hours and then still end up cooking (even if it's just something quick & easy) because if VP even tries to cook on a bad day he'll be in no fit state to eat.

I was being bit over the top. :oops:

I made us some sandwiches.
I had cheese, mixed salad leaves and mayo in a granary roll.
Badgers had ham and ketchup on white bread like a big kid :D
 
Spag bol, the bol is already simmering away in the slow cooker and smelling lush.
Garlic bread and salad to go with it, and red wine because it's Friday - hurrah!
